Reliability was also my main concern which is why i was so impressed with this kit. With the aftercooler and oil cooler already included in the kit, that gave me a lot more confidence in their product. It also comes with all the fuel AND electronic upgrades as well. If you add it up, its about 2 grand worth more of stuff for nothing. All of those components were added for one thing, reliability effeciency.
In regards to invasiveness, well, i guess it depends on what you consider invasive. Vortech estimates a trained mechanic to be able to complete the job in 6 - 8 hours. Thats pretty dam straight forward to me. I believe Comptech's times are pretty much the same minus the oil cooler (that takes maybe 45 mins) I ll be installing this kit myself with the help of my best friend in my garage. I will be doing a before and after dyno and one final one with the addition of a VAFC for everyone to see the true numbers.

vortech claims 108 hp and 61 lb/ft of torque peak @ 7-8 psi of boost. that would give final numbers on a stock S to be about 348hp and 214 lb/ft or torque at the crank. not bad
